As an investor, developer, placemaker, and landlord, we’ve always had bold ambitions for Ancoats.
From restoring historic mills to creating homes and spaces for independent businesses, we’ve helped shape a neighbourhood that blends heritage with modern city living — welcoming thousands of new residents while keeping Ancoats’ unique character at its heart.
